Good video TD Sunshine. The problem with these AI feature is that, they are gonna make teams believe that design is as easy as prompting Figma to push pixels. This will lead into very low quality products being handed off for development (let's not dive into issues with AI generated code). I'm on board with some AI features especially the ones that take away mundane tasks from designers like renaming layers, but not in support of features like generating designs with a prompt.
Great points! I think the AI features that simplify and speed up design work like the ones you mentioned are such great additions but the make designs and make images are a grey zone. Make designs has been unavailable since a day after I made this video! I think they are working to improve it! ☀️🙏🏻
As a solo founder, these tools are gr8 for me, as before i had to chase after designers. And by the way taking these prototypes into AI models like Claude Sonnet 3.1 produces working code. By the way I'm a developer and already using this workflow, ... AI is here, adapt or be left in the dust. 😉
I have one more question. What is the right process in a product company: Wireframes > design system > High fidelity designs Or Design system > Wireframes > HF designs
ooo great question! Really depends on the project and what state it's in when you start working on it. I would say Design system (colours and type only) - Wireframes - keep expanding DS while making HF ☀️🙏🏻💛
Your design system series is awesome. Can you please make a video of color system (variable naming) for a large company like Spotify or IBN? They have a lot of colors for borders, surfaces etc. I am not sure how can we manage a large library. Just like other designers, I also confused with the tokens naming. RUclips doesn't have any video for that. Can you help?
Thanks! Naming conventions in design systems is a complex one I agree! There are so many different "schools of thought" around it and at the end of the day its really about what works best for your specific needs and ways of working. great idea though! Will add it to my list of potential future videos ☀️🙏🏻💛
Hi, regarding the part of the video that shows the translation of the text into Italian, I have to say that it is fantastic and super realistic - word of an Italian :-)
Great review, thanks! What I'd love to see from Figma AI or any of its alternatives is to create screens _based on a screen that I give it_. For example, say I'd manually created a home page for an app and got all the styling, colours and other elements just right. Now I need to build out the rest of the designs such the profile screen, search results, shopping cart and so on. I'd like to say "Create me a profile screen based on [my supplied screen]". Do you happen to know if Figma AI can do that?
That would be amazing!! Sadly the current "make designs" pulls all of its designs from a set component library created by Figma but I really hope we will be able to tell it which library to pull from i the future! ☀️🙏🏻💛
Figma AI is still in limited beta so it's only available to some users. You can add yourself to the waiting list in the "?" on the bottom right of a Figma file! ☀️🙏🏻
Right now Figma AI uses a set component library created by Figma and that's why most of the designs it creates look very similar and also you can see on the design panel that it uses instances. ☀️🙏🏻

Using the new UI in figma slides… it’s kind of a cluster fuck. It’s not better yet. Hopefully the long tail vision will rein it in. But so far not a fan of the overall flow and ultimately UX of the changes.

@@TDSunshine I see only learn about ui3 there and it just says it's not possible to get added to the wait-list. Could you give more precise instructions?
It takes a minute to get used to but I like most of it now! I do find it really confusing though that the left panel isn't at the edge of the canvas so you can see the design behind it 🙃☀️
This is the first Figma AI features demonstration that I'm seeing after the keynote and I'm glad it's by you, woohoo thank you 😊👍 💙
Thanks! 🙏🏼💛☀️
Thanks for sharing this!
You're welcome! ☀️🙏🏻💛
I wish they can add some sort of branding kit. That way, it will be easier to apply styles, typography and other brand elements to our designs.
Yes! I really hope this is a future feature! ☀️🙏🏻
really like your manner of showing stuff, good job!
Thanks! ☀️🙏🏻

One of the best Figma channels. I know it's not exclusive to Figma, but You know what I mean teacher Sunshine 💯❤👏
thank you! ☀️🙏🏻💛
Great ✌🏽🙏🏽 Thanks from 🇸🇳🇸🇳

Great Video 🤗☀ Is it available now in professional plan????
AI is on limited beta right now and is rolling out to more and more users everyday! ☀️🙏🏻
from where I get the beta version, I could't find in search.. anyway, thank you for the best explanatory video.

Can AI creates all design components into a Design System?

u didnt tell suggest
auto layout options?
I have a different video covering the auto layout updates - ruclips.net/video/r966BWVccJ4/видео.html ☀️🙏🏻
Great features, but overall UI 3 is step back. Floating side panels making me crazy.
I'm not a big fan of the floating panels as well 😔☀️
Please is the Ai a paid package because mine was updated but i can't find the Ai stuff there

@@TDSunshine Thanks
Can you tell me how to make those new tools appear in Figma?
Figma AI is still in limited beta and is slowly rolling out to all users ☀️🙏🏻💛
Are these features available in the free version?

Amazing
Thanks 🙏🏼☀️
how do i explore this figma AI beta?
She said at the beginning of the video that she were given special access to the beta version (probably due to her specialized youtuber status).

The new UI strains the eyes and bites off real estate. In my view figma makes it worse.

AI is insane. Why even learn the program at this point 😅
haha yes it might put us all out of a job very soon hah ☀️
Gosh AI take over is near, designers will be ome obsolete
I heard a very smart saying the other day - AI won't take our jobs, people who know how to use AI tools will take our jobs.
☀️🙏🏻
the new interface is a complete disappointment, very inconvenient, return the old mode
I didn't love it at first but I'm used to it now. There are still things I don't love but it's not too bad! ☀️🙏🏻
